NYC Filming in Downtown LA

Brownie says:

Q) When will you see a NYC cab in LA?
A) When there is a filming scene of NYC...

Yap, today we go to downtown LA to buy 1 luggage bag for carry-in, since we have too much things, and will most likely need more luggage space... And the cheapest place is downtown in Historic District. And guess what, there is a filming shoot going on. And we see lots of NYC cab... It have to be based in NY, but they are filming in LA. Guess they are trying to save money & time this way...

We stand there for about an hour watching them shoot and re-shoot the same scene over and over again. 2 actors (and we have no idea who they are...hehe) walking along the pavement and talking as well. Just so simple, but it took more than an hour... Phew...

First, we have aircraft flying overhead, both the commercial aeroplane and helicopter, since this is downtown and helicopter is a common sight here. Second, we have fire engine or police car sirens going off as well... So they have to NG several times just because of these interruptions...

And we not suppose to take pictures, but I risk my life and use the camera phone to take some pics and videos of the filming :)





Take 1: NG

Take 2: NG again

Take 3: more NG.

Looks like it will take a lot time to do this scene and we do not have the patience nor time to stick around, so we left to buy our luggage... Definitely interesting to see these on-goings in LA...
